Colin is an excellent host. The rooms are clean and the bed comfy. A delight to stay in such characterful accommodation on our trip.

The room was huge, as it is a former dormitory. It has a full kitchen and bathroom. It is furnished with older furniture to suit the building, but is well maintained and comfortable. A great, somewhat quirky, experience.

Very unique property. Was like staying at grandma’s. Very old school, but had everything you need. Plenty of heating, very clean, a cosy bed, Foxtel and they leave you a breakfast to cook for yourself in the fridge.

The ground floor Music Room is very comfortable and well-equipped. We especially appreciated the access to a laundry and drying facilities.

I loved the uniqueness of the property and apartment. It was very cosy and made me feel very much like I was on a vacation! Additionally, the bed was very comfortable, space to spread out was fantastic, and the kitchen and breakfast was everything we needed!

We had 1 night here. Although old-style accommodation, it was excellent, with a lot of character and charm. We were in the "Music Room", which was enormous (really a whole apartment). The bed was very comfortable. Everything we needed was there. The outdoor seating areas were good, although it was a bit too hot for us to use them much. The breakfast supplies were very generous. Located within few minutes' walk of the main street. Would definitely recommend as an alternative to a standard motel room.

We were surprised by the size of the room and how beautifully it was appointed. Would be great for a family. The facilities were spotless and in character with the era which made for a unique and pleasant experience.

Greeted by Colin, Miss Til (little terrier) and immediately felt the old world charm. Colin showed us to our very spacious, butt cosy self contained apartment and explained the history - the 'room' had been the homework/study area for female students.... " A place of learning and discipline'. Very light and airy with a quaint little verandah, comfortable kitchen - everything we needed, even bathrobes. A plentiful breakfast, we wanted for nothing....and the bed gave us a great night's sleep. Would recommend this charming piece of local history. Thank you Colin...and Miss Til!

We loved our stay at this place. From the moment of our arrival, Colin made us and our two young children feel very welcome. The kids loved the lemons picked straight from the tree - and the chickens. The room was so interesting and very comfortable. It was clean and warm. The breakfast items set us up perfectly for another day on the road. We would highly recommend this lovely place.

Absolutely loved the old world feeling and decor of this fabulous accomodation. Gorgeous comfy king bed , two fireplaces , we used the one that was gas and easy to light ! Also it was great to have breakfast supplied so that we could cook it when we wanted to , to have an early driving start .

A true gem! A very happy find with hosts who have clearly restored life back into this amazing piece of history with an eye for detail and a loving approach. Looking forward to returning again some day and sending family and friends who we know will appreciate this beautiful place as much as we do.

An extraordinary and wonderful place to stay - the suite was elegant and very practical - even more pleasing was accommodation allowed pets. The Old Convent is a must for anyone travelling along the Newell Highway - cannot recommend it highly enough! Centrally located - welcoming and very obliging owner! Breakfast was outstanding and included eggs from their own chickens!

Beautiful historical building with spacious and comfortable rooms. Lovely welcome from the owners too. We enjoyed a dip in the hot tub in the garden then walked a couple of hundred metres to the Woolworths to buy food and cooked it in our kitchen before settlling in to watch The Dish on the DVD provided. The breakfast ingredients provided were plentiful and delicious and the flexibility was wonderful. Highly recommend the Convent as a lovely alternative to motels.
